TTC after 35

Saying hello

Hello!
I'm new to TB and though I'd start with a quick intro (will try bit to bore you all).

Im 38 and 1/2, I've been trying ttc for 2 years with only 1 pregnancy last year, unfortunately that ended in May at 14 weeks with my waters breaking and my baby's heart stopping. Sadly I gave birth 2 weeks later.

Any way, since then I've had no luck but im seeing a consultant. I have an HSG booked for the 15th oct and I'm starting clomid next cycle. Sorry if you fell asleep reading that.

I hope you don't mind me joining you all on your journey, fingers crossed for speedy BFP all round

  • Welcome and I am so sorry to hear the horrible loss you suffered. I wish you all the best this next month. Just wanted to add that in your title of the post it would be good to put a *warning saying Loss mentioned because it can be quite a shock to scroll and read that. I personally have not yet had a BFP and thus also no losses but I've seen some ladies get upset reading without a warning. Our board is a nurturing one and very supportive, just be sure you read the intro post at the top for the extra sensitivity. That's all... Thank you and again a very warm welcome I'm glad you found us!
    TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.  
    Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April
